On Tuesday, February 9, the Police and the Armed Forces will have joint shooting exercises in the old animal hospital's premises at Ultuna. They want to make dog owners aware that there will be shootings which dogs can react to.

The exercise will take place between 8.00 and 16.30. No ammunition used is sharp. The exercise also involves a simulated explosive charge that can be heard as a dull bang followed by a cloud of smoke.

The Armed Forces and the Police want to urge dog owners not to rest their dogs so close to the old animal hospital. They also ask for forgiveness for the inconvenience and discomfort this exercise may cause.

The old animal hospital is located between Ekologicentrum and SVA on Ultuna in the building called Klinikcentrum,
